Because Tebow is insisting on playing quarterback in the NFL, he’s leaving himself without options. Peter King reported this past week that an NFL team was interested in signing Tebow to play another position, but he turned down the opportunity because he won’t give up on playing quarterback.

King also reported Tebow has turned down offers from the Canadian Football League, where quarterbacks such as Pro Football Hall of Famer Warren Moon and Doug Flutie honed their skills. And, of course, Kurt Warner played in the Arena League and NFL Europe before he became an NFL MVP and Super Bowl MVP.

Warner has some strong and prudent advice for Tebow: Play.

“If that’s what your dream is and you want to keep pursuing it, find somewhere else to play,” Warner said on the Dan Patrick Show via PFT.com. “A key for me was to get reps. I needed to see things that I couldn’t see standing on the sidelines. That’s where guys like Tim Tebow are: We know he’s a work in progress, but the only way to get that progress is to find situations and to play.

“I know you want to play in the NFL, but right now you need to find places to hone your craft. Whether that’s Canada, whether that’s the Arena League, whether that’s anywhere else, I would encourage him, whatever the opportunity is, to take advantage of it and go play as much football as you can.”
